Counted Cross Stitch Kits and Patterns

Kate Greenaway 'Follow-my-leader'

Cross stitch Designer: Karen Dixon

This gorgeous counted cross stitch design is based on the
illustration for a rather strange poem by Kate Greenaway
which goes as follows:

'Ring the bells - ring!
Hip, hurrah for the King!
The dunce fell into the pool, oh!
The dunce was going to school, oh!
The groom and the cook
Fished him out with a hook,
And he piped his eye like a fool, oh!'

The design is worked on 28 count Zweigart Cashel linen
and the worked area measures 14¾ x 6½ ins (37.5 x 16.5
cm).
